Superfund In Texas

Superfund consists of interrelated, but distinct programs that evaluate and clean up sites contaminated with hazardous substances that pose a risk to human health or the environment.

State Superfund Program The state Superfund program addresses facilities that may constitute an imminent and substantial endangerment to public health and safety or the environment due to a release or threatened release of hazardous substances into the environment.

Federal Superfund Program The U. S. Environmental Protection Agency works with the TCEQ under the federal Superfund environmental program and the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA) to assess and clean up abandoned hazardous waste sites on the National Priorities List (NPL).
